On the way home from school today, my kids and I ended up in a detailed description of 'hidden Time Lords' in our culture - the two they successfully identified were Oscar the Grouch, of Sesame Street fame by pointing out that the metal trash can he lives in has been revealed to be much bigger than it appears. They recounted an episode in which there was a swimming pool somewhere down there, and another in which he had secreted a pet elephant in his trash can (only the trunk being seen by the viewer). True, he isn't the most amiable of Time Grouches, perhaps he is secretly the Master on an off day!
The second one was actually a Time Dog. Snoopy, they reasonably discussed, is known to have several levels mysteriously inside his dog-house. There is a pool table, an art gallery, a dining room and a spiral staircase at the very least. And he 'travels' in/on it. How else can you explain this modern-day Beagle having such intimate knowledge of World War I? Yes, Snoopy's dog-house is most assuredly a TARDIS.
;D

I once lived in a house that was bigger in the inside. This was before The MASTER found me.

Primsong, oh how clever of them! I wonder how many more timelords in cartoon clothing we can spot (and four and his scarf are cartoony not cartoons lol).
Newton, this somehow, fails to surprise me. You Saxons, lol.

I think someone on lj made a huge list of possible Time Lords last summer, including people like Mary Poppins, Jeeves, and Miss Frizzle (from the Magic School Bus). And the other night while trying to fall asleep I realized that Santa Claus is a Time Lord.

I always loved miss Ms. Frizzle. I can see her being a TimeLORd. I mean, the bus is her Tardis.

You Saxons, lol. So when I was on my volunteer trip, I had a boss at my work placement, she was cool. I had just moved to a new host family and my group had an Ukrainian dinnerto funrise money. My boss is driving me home from Ukrainian Dinner Party.Boss: I can't wait to see your new house. I know your host family well. Your host mom sells houses so she must have a nice big house! We arrive in front of the house. Which looks really smallMe: Well actually, its bigger in the inside. I got lost in the basement. Boss: OH! It's leveled! I should have guessed. You are on a hill. /End |
